It must have been the insane idea, flashed a few years ago, of the realization of this website that stirred the waters, or the remorse for having left something unfinished: the fact is that here we are again, with some projects that have been whirling in our heads for years and that it is time to complete.

So, after discontinuing any musical activity at the threshold of the 90s, we dedicated ourselves to music in different ways. Below, with some mnemonic effort, we recap the most significant experiences and occurrences as from the beginning of the third millennium. Some of them laid the foundation for our reunion:

2003 – collaborations with CSPI, Prog Movements and Wonderous Stories on the occasion of the writing of ” Tales at 33 ….”.

Language

Il Prog per noi…

"...The progressive (once called Pop-Rock) was for us not only to listen to or play music, but also a way of life, to channel youthful energies into something constructive and communicative of our inner needs, refusing de facto pre-made models the patterns of economic manipulators..." (1979)
